Welcome
Thank you for visiting my website, and congratulations on taking this first step toward meaningful change. I understand how challenging it can be to get here. For the past 18 years, I’ve been helping individuals reclaim their lives from substance abuse.
If traditional “rehab” programs, AA meetings, or lifelong group sessions don’t feel like the right fit for you, that’s perfectly okay. While those can be excellent options, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution to overcoming substance use issues. Instead, I take the time to assess each client’s unique circumstances and uncover the underlying factors driving their substance use. From there, we develop a customized, evidence-based recovery plan that excites you and sparks genuine motivation.
We’ll work together for months, not years, and you’ll benefit from my extensive expertise in what truly works for your unique situation. All sessions are conducted virtually—via phone or video—so you can participate from the comfort and privacy of your home or office. I look forward to guiding you on a path to sustained, positive change.
Substance Abuse Counseling and Coaching Services
Assessment & Customized Treatment
My services begin with a thorough, evidence-based assessment that carefully explores your unique experiences, history, and circumstances to uncover the underlying factors driving your substance use. Through this detailed assessment, we'll gain clarity about your specific needs and challenges, allowing us to build a highly personalized recovery plan. This customized approach integrates your personal strengths and addresses barriers, creating a clear, achievable path toward genuine motivation and sustainable change. By aligning treatment strategies specifically to you, I ensure that our work together is targeted, impactful, and designed for lasting success in your recovery journey.
Counseling or Coaching
My counseling and coaching offers personalized one-on-one sessions specifically designed to help you achieve your unique recovery goals. Whether you're just starting your journey or need support maintaining long-term sobriety, I provide clear, practical guidance and motivational strategies tailored to your individual needs. With consistent support, I’ll help you stay inspired, overcome setbacks, and make necessary adjustments to keep your progress moving forward. Unlike many providers, I’m committed to returning all calls the same day, and if I’m unable to provide the support you need, I’ll refer you to someone who can.
Family Crisis Support
My family support services are designed specifically for families facing the overwhelming stress of helping a loved one struggling with substance abuse. I understand how confusing and emotionally exhausting it can be to figure out the right steps, find the best treatment options, and effectively support your loved one. I'll provide clear, step-by-step guidance to reduce your anxiety, fear, and stress, empowering you with practical strategies and compassionate support to confidently help your family move toward recovery.
